johnson Little Stabbing Case.

1t appears that the story of the stab
bing of George Little, colored by Tuos.
Johnson, colored, in the First district on
Wednesday of last week, told by the
latter and published in our issue of last
week is very different from that told by
Little and the witnesses of the aifray be-
fore Magistrate George r. Fanzant at
the hearing. The witnesses We're Chas.
Freeman, colored, Robert Gauntz and
James Robinson, all of whom are EN-
ployed by Mr.. George Mannon on fa1 m
in the lower part of the First district
where the stabbing occurred at the
breakfast table. They say that Johnson
in reaching for biscuit knocked several
off the plate. Little said to him cant
you do any better than that at man S
table" johnson said he didn't want
any thing out of Little aud took a case
knife and drew it across Little's shoul-
ders saying ''If you say anything more to
me about this matter | will stick knife
in you.' Johnson then stabbed Little in
the abdomen with a butcher knife Little
did not strike, swear at, or threaten
Johnson as the latter declared.
1t was extensively reported on Satur-
day that Little had died of his injuries
but upon investigation this was found to
be incorrect. Little was taken to the
Tippet house near Eulville after the
stabbing. 1t was in this house several
years since that Daniel Tucker, colored,
outraged and murdered a young colored
girl for which crime he is now serving a
long term in the penitentiary. Little
was attended by DR.. w. F. Taylor of
Earlevile who dressed the wound. The
knife entered the right side of Little s
abdomen and penetrated downwards for
about six inches. The doctor was of the
opinion the early part of the week that
the wounded man would recover.
